For completion sake, the problem is that the python ebuilds are broken. They don't add a python symlink if no python symlink existed before. This has been broken for a long time, and it's really stupidly annoying, especially when the fix has been available in the python overlay for three months. http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/python/changeset/405/overlays/python/dev-lang/python/python-2.7.2_pre20101128.ebuild Push it into the tree so that you don't continue to break my stage builds.
